If the dates you are interested in are not shown please email us for availability of a yacht and instructor and we will set the course up for you.

We are obliged by the RYA to advise our students that this course is available as a 1 day Classroom course or an Online Study course.
However, for the Classroom course our instructor is not able to offer the final exam for your licence after your course. This means our students have to find a different school to carry out the exam. Here in Antigua this imposes considerable inconvenience on our students.
Our advice is that you opt for the Online course, but the choice is yours. Preview the Online Course for which the minimum compatibility requirements are:

PC running Windows 10 minimum with the latest version of Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome or Firefox.

Mac running 10.13 minimum with the latest version of Safari, Google Chrome or Firefox

iPad running iOS 11 minimum using Safari.

Android tablet running 4.1 minimum using Google Chrome.

With the Online course, once you have booked your exam with us, you will need to create a free account on the RYA website RYA Sign In, pay the RYA the exam fee upon application here SRC Exam Application & Payment. (The fee is £60 or approximately US$85). We provide full instructions for how you do this.
Your application and payment will be confirmed by email from the RYA. Please forward this to us. Upon receipt we will send you the RYA VHF eBook Redemption Voucher and comprehensive instructions on how to login to the course and RYA Books application. These will include information on where to download the application, how to login, and how to download the eBook.
